What I said was an opinion. I don't re-call saying something along the lines of "I'm maintainer of this community, therefore what I say goes, so don't argue with me" - No. I'm just merely discussing what I think. As you should as well. Sexual chemistry with friends is another matter, because once it hits the sexual aspect of it. It's no longer a simple friendship. Anyway, affection in terms of gentleness would make sense. And I agree on the 'moving on' part. I just said that most of the people whom I've come across see this as a solution, because for them it's difficult to write it any other way and still have the characters seem committed to an extent.
